Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have a house in a village called CREVECOEUR LE GRAND. It's not great but I can get two people in a small room. It is very calm and relaxing. The welcome people are very nice and offering my roof for a few days is a simple gesture of friendship. I am 25 kilometers from Beauvais but I have a vehicle. (a small car without a license, I lost the points of my driving license not long ago). My house is under construction but there is enough to wash and sleep comfortably.

Interests

photography, reading, sailing, walking.

I run an association called Sol 'Itinera which carries out reports for humanitarian purposes in France and in other countries. We are helping a poor village in Romania and helping to literate the children. With the volunteers we work in the districts of Beauvais

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One day I received a phone call from a stranger asking me to drive to Frankfurt. It was December 24, 2010 it snowed. Accompanied by his sister we took the road in a snowstorm. We travel across France and Belgium, the snow did not stop falling and the road became every mile more dangerous. Twenty kilometers in germany impossible to advance further on the highway.Two people wanted to join their mother in Oslo to spend Christmas with her. After the airport of paris closed because of the storm that Frankfurt could not be reached. I turned around because I did not want to risk our lives. In one day we came back to the starting point.Two people wanted to join their mother in Oslo to spend Christmas Eve with her.
